With people getting their hands on GTA V early and retailers sending it out a lot earlier than they should, I ask, do release dates really mean anything?
Ross Scott—also known as Accursed Farms on YouTube—has been fighting tooth and nail for almost a full year to help spearhead game preservation. Starting after it was announced that Ubisoft's The Crew would be shutting down, permanently ending support for the game, Scott launched the "Stop Killing Games" initiative.
That makes a twofold deadline for the Stop Killing Games initiative. Or, at least, one headed up by Scott: The UK petition, which ends July 14, and the EU Citizens' Initiative, which ends July 3.
If you live in the EU then Please sign this or our game ownership rights and game preservation is
at stake. I know there isnt much time left but please consider signing the petition
People whine and in the end don't do a thing. Then whine more when they get screwed some more smh. If this makes it then it'll be monumental for consumers. That Pirate software guy was no help either smh.
There are many exciting updates this month for Xbox. Copilot for Gaming is available now for early preview on mobile and will be coming to PC soon. Xbox PC app introduces a wave of new updates: Aggregated gaming library gives players quick access to games from Xbox, Game Pass, and other leading PC storefronts, and with publisher channels players can browse their favorite franchises. Updates for the Xbox Console includes customization for Most Recently Used, free-to-play benefits, Game Hubs, and dialog improvements for game saves.
"Players can now hide system apps, pin favorites to the list, and reduce the number of tiles displayed. This update is part of our ongoing effort to make Home more personal, flexible, and responsive to feedback."
This is welcomed, i like a less cluttered home screen.
Gotta be a slow news day when a 18 hours and 3 comments (now 4)makes it to the front page🤷🏿

Well anything that adds and help gamers is a good thing even if some don’t need it there’ll be more that will use it.
Well its MS news... those are usually pretty dry, unless it has something to do with another game being ported to PS. then its top of the pops.

Oh look no further than the "Upcoming layoffs at MS" topic. It will easily top the Hottest of the week.
Special guests like Mr. Dead might also show up. You just watch.
Playdead co-founder Dino Patti is allegedly being sued by his former studio and business partner.
Patti was threatened with a lawsuit earlier this year after he posted a now-deleted LinkedIn post that shared an "unauthorized" picture of co-founder Arnt Jensen and discussed some of Limbo's development. Patti said Jensen demanded a little over $73,000 in "suitable compensation and reimbursement," adding that he had "repeatedly" had such letters over the last nine years.
Yes, it's the day most people will get the game.
I think retailers who break the release dates should be punished in some way by the publishers, mostly if said retailer has done it multiple times. It's unfair competition and, I would presume, a breach of contract with the game's publisher. If a retailer isn't willing to play by the rules, said retailer probably shouldn't receive the publisher's next big game at launch, that would likely teach them a lesson (for example, had a retailer sold Red Dead Redemption early, he would not receive GTA5 at launch).
skyrim had 11.11.11 going for it, and i think fridays are more popular especially later in the year
Just get the games out and about dont let it be held when shops have it they should sell it.
Release dates build hype and anticipation.
